CALL TO ARTISTS: Last Supper Exhibition in Burlington

THE SECOND TO LAST SUPPER EXHIBITION
April 1, 2011 to April 30, 2011

The Green Candle Theatre Company and The Bubba Foundation are seeking 30 to 50 artists to participate in The Second to Last Supper Exhibition. This exhibition is accepting one submission per artist to be exhibited from April 1, 2011 until April 30, 2011. A reception is scheduled to be hosted on Good Friday, 2011 (April 22) from 7pm until Midnight and will feature live music as well as food and a variety of Last Supper oriented performances and activities.

Artists interested in submitting to this exhibition will receive a CD containing an image file of a paint-by-numbers version of The Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci. Artists are free to use this file any way they deem necessary. Some may choose to render the painting as presented in the file and others may choose to focus on only a detail of the composition while others might abstract from the image all together. Artists are free to interpret The Last Supper as they see fit. Submissions can be in any 2-D medium, but should not exceed 30” x 40” in size and must be ready to hang.

We are asking artists to commit by the ides of March (that’s March 15...) and when they do we will communicate an intake date and time for them individually.The Second to Last Supper Exhibition is a benefit for the Green Candle Theatre Company and The Bubba Foundation. Any piece sold during the exhibition dates will pay out 15% to Green Candle, 15% to Bubba and 70% to the artist. Because this exhibition is a benefit we are asking participating artists to cap their prices at $500.00.
